Thank you for you and the German Lutheran Church’s contribution to the Multicultural Event at St Paul’s Sydney Lutheran Church on Sunday 23 October 2022.

You have been and continue to be a blessing to many people, so thank you for your Offering Prayer in German, and the Black Forest Cake you made for us.

The multicultural worship service, fellowship and food is greatly appreciated by many people. We have much to thank God for in being part of a Multicultural Community.

Close to ninety people attended in person, and so far, the service has been viewed one hundred and twenty-seven times online. You can watch and share the worship service with others at https://youtu.be/Snmvufg69Zk .

One of the signs of how much people appreciated the event was that many people are requesting we continue holding this event again. We believe this will become an annual event and we will also explore ideas for other events that bring people together. And we look forward to you joining us as we celebrate God’s blessings on us and helping others connect with each other.

And may we continue living out the words of Psalm 96:2–3.

Sing to the LORD, praise his name;

proclaim his salvation day after day.

Declare his glory among the nations,

his marvelous deeds among all peoples.

Again, thank you, and we pray you too were blessed by the Multicultural Event at St Paul’s Sydney
